The Hospital General of Toledo, a major public healthcare facility, faced a significant Indoor Air Quality (IAQ) challenge due to fluctuating levels of Volatile Organic Compounds (VOCs), including occasional formaldehyde peaks. These pollutants, common in hospital environments as a result of materials, cleaning processes, and clinical activity, pose potential risks to staff health, patient safety, and indoor environmental quality.

Prior to the project, the hospital lacked a solution capable of providing accurate, real-time IAQ monitoring, early detection of pollutant concentration changes, and reliable environmental data to support effective air quality management. This limitation made it difficult to ensure stable and controlled indoor conditions, particularly in critical healthcare areas where air quality plays a key role in operational safety and clinical performance.

To meet the hospital’s requirements, inBiot technology was integrated with TrioniC–Lodepa environmental air treatment systems, delivering a smart, automated solution driven by real-time indoor air quality data. This integration enabled continuous monitoring and direct, data-based control of air treatment equipment in sensitive healthcare areas.

The solution included:

• MICA WELL MODBUS devices, high-precision sensors designed for continuous IAQ monitoring in hospital environments.

• WiFi connectivity, ensuring reliable real-time data availability.

• My inBiot Business API integration, allowing seamless communication between IAQ sensors and TrioniC systems.

• Automated activation and dynamic adjustment of air treatment intensity, based on real-time VOCs and formaldehyde levels.

Through this API-based control, increases in pollutant concentrations automatically triggered higher treatment capacity, accelerating contaminant reduction. Once optimal conditions were restored, system operation was adjusted to optimize energy use while maintaining environmental safety.
